"Quidditch star?" I question as I approach the group

"Quidditch star?" I question as I approach the group.

"Yes! Neville here was just telling me how you are Keeper on your team, and a brilliant one at that." Harry goes on.

"I do have to say, it was most likely my pointers that got you there now wasn't it?" Ron says confidently.

"Oh yes Ron, it was all you." I joke.

The men start joking around about how terrible of a Keeper Ron was when he first started playing, I take the moment the attention is off of me to stand by Teddy.

"Ted." I say softly.

"Don't even try to apologize Jude, you have no reason to. I'm the one who is sorry." Teddy sighs

Confused on what he should be sorry for when I was the one that said such awful things the night before.

"Jude, you are my best mate and I didn't even know you were upset about something. Some friend I am." Teddy says while kicking dirt around with his sneakers.

"Teddy it's alright, I didn't say anything... I should have confided in you sooner." I start.

"No. No it's not only that, it's the fact that to be completely honest I was happy. I'm such a shit friend because I sat there for a split moment last night thinking, finally, Jude Hellenberg has a fault. And for that I can't forgive myself." Teddy admits.

"Wha?"

"Jude you were the one that got sorted into Gryffindor, you are the quidditch star, you are the one that gets all the attention from..... from people. You are the perfect Jude Hellenberg and I've always been jealous."

"Teddy are you serious? I mean I've always been jealous of you. You have both your parents, and you are so close with the Weasleys, you have cool powers, you always make people smile." I say while patting my friend on the back.

"You think my Metamorphmagus powers, are cool?" Teddy questions.

"Of course mate!! When we first met as children and you had that blue hair, I begged my mom for like 3 months straight to have blue hair!! I was extremely jealous!" I say which a bright smile.

Teddy smiles back at me and I know I don't have anything to worry about with our friendship. We would be just fine. It was Rue I was worried about. This year her personality and actions had changed dramatically. Teddy was worried about not knowing of my pain or my sadness yet we knew nothing of hers. She was obviously going through something.

"Teddy, no Teddy not the blue hair again!" Remus sighs from afar. I look back at my best friend to see he is now sporting his favorite blue colored hair.

"That's more like it." I say with a smirk.

Just then I see Draco approaching us.

"Jude." He says with a simple nod of his head, asking me to come walk with him.
